If simply completing a marathon per se were worthy of congratulation then maybe the meme wouldn't be so bad. But self-congratulation in that manner is pretty much always vile.Edited by why - 1/29/13 at 2:08pm

I've noticed there are a FUCKTON of 26.2 stickers on cars in Atlanta (far more than 13.1, truth be told) and now a huge amount of 70.2 or whatever it is... basically, far FAR more than there should be. And then rhere are some in the triple digit range. Everytime I see one my reaction is: bitch, please.

Only as punishment for not eating dinner or tidying her room. She looks 12 years old for christ sake!

Yep. I think most of them drove 26.2 miles and want to represent.

I also hate the USA-Triathlon stickers, too. They look almost official, like you're a member of the USA Olympic Triathlon team or something. That I really dislike.

FWIW, there are a lot of walkers in the big marathons, and they also tend to sport the 26.2 stickers.

If I commit a crime and then run a marathon, I can't be punished because the guy who committed the crime is a different person. People in the St. Louis area better keep a close eye on their belongings in the coming weeks, let me just put it that way.
